I got a response from Toltec support which indicates that it is really  
a problem there:

<quote>
It seems that Outlook is using the table restriction method in the  
Toltec LDAP Address Book to do a look up of the user display name  
instead of the SMTP address.

Now obviously the display name is turned around when using last name  
first and this is why Outlook cannot match it and creates a new  
attendee. I will look if there is some way to normalize the display  
name when Outlook passes is to the LDAP address book.

I'll keep you informed when they have any news (and hopefully a fix).

Looks fine, it only includes the participant's mail address, regardless  
of the particular setting of the LDAP address book name display.

Thanks, Albrecht.
